- Tax-deductible
- The Robotics Catalyst Foundation is a 501(c)(3), EIN 39‑2225353. We email a receipt as soon as your gift clears.
- Where it goes
- Two places. First-year costs for new teams: kits, registration, travel, and mentoring. And Robolyst, the free Team HQ platform and robotics directory, which costs $400 a month to run, including a rewards program that turns teams’ use of it into grants.
- What comes off the top
- Only the card processor’s fee. The rest goes to the foundation’s work.
